Daylight robbery! However, I visited the Blacksmith, who salvaged the helm for free, returning the gem to my inventory. The jeweler wanted to charge me 7485 gold for the privilege. No, if you aren't going to use the armor piece again and simply want to salvage it, it's cheaper to just do so as it will return the gem to your inventory free of charge.įor example, I visited the Jeweler to unsocket an embedded emerald from this rare helm. Do I need to remove gems from my items before salvaging at the blacksmith in Diablo 4? The jeweler will also remove gems from items so you can use them on other pieces, but we do not recommend this as it's costly. Either way, it's a rare material so use it wisely! You can also sometimes acquire it from reward chests when clearing cellars and dungeons, and dismantling legendary items. The elusive Scattered Prism crafting material drops from Treasure Goblins or defeating a World Boss. Where can I get Scattered Prism in Diablo 4? The jeweler, on top of combining gems into higher quality, will also add sockets to your items if you are using something you wish to improve. From what we've seen so far, the higher quality drop from level 60 and World Tier 4 onwards. So far these are the only levels of gem quality we have been able to craft, and it appears higher levels are locked at least after World Tier 3, so once we have access we will update this guide.

Most of the time through your initial playthrough of Diablo 4, you'll be using the lower quality gems, but there is a way to improve them and increase their power. Gems are great way to make up for weaknesses in your build, so if you feel you need more damage mitigation, or if you're struggling against a boss that uses poison damage, there's a gem for that! The general rule of thumb though, is that adding to a weapon will give you a damage buff, to armor a defense buff, and to jewelry some form of resistance.
